At the 2018 IAMSLIC conference in Uganda, there will be an Aquatic Commons “work party” to introduce participants to the repository while at the same time increasing open access to publications.

We are looking for content, and you do not have to attend the conference to contribute!

Do you have publications that you would like deposited into Aquatic Commons? You can take advantage of a room full of information professionals to create metadata and do the work for you!

Since we are meeting in Africa, our hope is to find publications from the continent but we are open to other geographical areas. Publications must be in digital format and permission to deposit must be cleared with copyright holders in advance.

If you are interested in participating or have other suggestions, please contact sally.taylor@ubc.ca
